He rose to his knees, gripping his cock, and moisture beaded on his tip. “I need to be inside you. Right now.”
With a wicked grin, she pushed him down and straddled him, sinking onto his dick and gasping as he filled her. Still incredibly sensitive from her orgasm, she moved slowly, rising up and sliding down, reveling in the pleasant ache of his girth.
He held her hips and ran his hands over her body, caressing her skin. “I love you.”
His words washed over her, wrapping around her like a blanket, hugging her tight. “I love you too.”
She leaned down for a kiss and increased her rhythm, going faster, harder. He groaned and gripped her thighs, encouraging her to continue her speed. They fit together perfectly, and he thrust his hips beneath her, matching her rhythm beat for beat until another orgasm spiraled in her core.
“Are you ready?” she asked.
“Gods, yes.” He leaned his head to the side, giving her access to his neck.
She bit, and as his blood bathed her tongue, she came. Her entire body shuddered with her release, and she stilled, giving Spencer full control.
He thrust harder, harder, faster, faster, his fingers digging into her flesh before he slammed into her, grinding his pelvis into hers as he found his release.
His grip loosened, and she lay on top of him, covering his body with hers, unwilling to end the intimacy just yet. It had taken millennia, but the world’s first woman had finally found her match. Fate had given her another chance at love, and this time, she was taking it.
EPILOGUE
Lilith donned the magical clothing Arachne had made for her and paced down the street toward the network offices. It was midday, and the dastardly sun beat down on her shoulders. Thankfully, the SPF one thousand did its job, and she only felt a tingle of fatigue. Nothing she couldn’t handle.
Sadly, Percival and Esther had to stay home for this adventure. Humans didn’t take kindly to a woman walking into a professional building with a snake draped over her shoulders. Go figure.
Frigid air engulfed her as she stepped inside the high rise, and she removed her hat, folding it and tucking it into a magical pocket. She slipped her sunglasses into the other one and boarded the elevator to head to the fourteenth floor.
Spencer said she needed to sign a release and attend a meeting before the Romania episode could air. Why she had to venture out to do this when electronic signatures and video calls existed, she wasn’t sure. But Spencer insisted, and she would move The Underworld and Earth for the man she loved.
She smiled at the thought of him. He’d gotten control of his bloodlust quickly, and the light in his eyes when she’d released his owl, making him whole, would forever be her favorite memory.
The elevator door slid open, revealing Spencer, Alan, and Rebecca sitting on a bench in the lobby. He shot to his feet and strode toward her, taking her shoulders in his hands and kissing her cheek. “Thanks for coming.”
“Of course. I like your outfit.” She winked.
Spencer wore a custom-tailored suit, SPF one thousand. His light brown hair was freshly trimmed—the last haircut he would ever need—and his deep brown eyes sparkled with excitement. “The execs loved the Romania episode.”
“You saved our show.” Alan rose and strode toward them, followed by Rebecca.
“We can’t thank you enough,” she said.
Lilith’s smile widened. “The pleasure was mine, really. I’m happy to help on any future episodes as well. I do have connections.”
“That’s why I asked you to come.” Spencer glanced at his friends, and they nodded. “Mary, the head of programming, is interested in the redhead who shined on camera.”
A giggle rose from her chest. “I don’t know about shined.”
“When she asked who you were…” Spencer lowered his gaze, biting his lip before looking into her eyes. “I told her you were our new head of research.”
She blinked. “What…?”
“She wants to hire you. She…we…want you to be part of our team.”
Her lips parted on a gasp. “So I would go on all of your adventures?”
“And help us plan them.” He took her hand. “What do you say? Join our team? Be our partner?”
They were at his place of employment, and she needed to act professionally, but at that moment, she didn’t care. She threw her arms around him and planted a kiss on his lips. “Do you even have to ask? Of course I’ll join you.”
She rested her head on his shoulder, and a tear slid down her cheek. Never, in thousands of years, would she ever have believed she could love someone this much. She had found a partner in life and now a purpose…all thanks to speed dating.
A woman in a pencil skirt and a blue silk blouse stepped toward them. “The Hunt for Cryptids?”
“That’s us.” Spencer released Lilith and smoothed his suit.
“Mary will see you now.” She gestured toward an open door.
Spencer beamed. “Ready to start your career?”
She straightened her spine, her smile making her cheeks ache, and she nodded. “Indeed, I am.”
